this is how i‘ll remeber this band forever. with dimitri on vocals. one of the best live shows i‘ve ever seen. pure power. incomparable to what followed
Best era of Dillinger. Dimitri vocals match the intensity of the music and Chris on drums, just glad I was around at this time to see and meet some of em.
To each his own. All of dillingers stuff is amazing. At that time I was involved in music and got to play with them a bunch and it was just a really good time. I guess I am more of a fan of that point and time than the music then vs the music later.
@@robertwiegand9927 right on... maybe we gigged together? We use to play with a static lullaby... finch etc. a bunch. What was your band name? We were Nobody Wins
@@devinmichaelroberts9954 the name of your band does sound familiar. Our name was All Else Failed. We played alot up and down the east coast. After I quit they branched out a little out west but mostly shows in Philadelphia, New York, and alot in Delaware. We played with dillinger in Pittsburgh, Brooklyn, Baltimore and I think washington. After I left they went on a short tour with Dillinger and Darkest Hour. Ben and Chris really helped us out in trying to get our name out there by getting us on big shows with them and what not. Really good guys and like I said, they are responsible for alot of great memories for me.
I saw All Else Failed in Dallas at the Bronco Bowl in ‘02. I think Darkest Hour was also on that bill. Opening for Dillinger. The vocalist would bash himself in the head with the mic. lol
I didn't listen to normal music again for seriously 10 years after hearing this for the first time streaming off their old website. The build up for the release of Calculating Infinity was insane and it delivered in every way. Was a crazy time to be following modern metal, after a couple years of Napster showing us all just exactly what was out there. This was something new, something cutting edge, and the rabbit hole led straight to Dillinger's Calculating Infinity album.
I didn't even understand DEP until I saw them. Candiria opened for them. Which pissed me off to no end. Then I saw them. And Jesus fucking Christ. Jeeeeeeeeesus fucking Christ.
No words can describe how revolutionary this ep and band was. They were pioneers of a sound that didn’t yet exist. I’d honestly put these guys up with bands like Zepplin, Pink Floyd, Rolling Stones, all what people would consider the greatest bands of all time.
When I was a young little punk rocker I didn't get this e.p. or this band one night this line up played a hardcore/punk show at a local venue (rip Homebase) I was floored at what my 14 yr old punk rock eyes seen..I was never the same.
on this and Calculating infinity, these lot were writing on another level. what blows my mind is how different all the structuring is, yet each song is so clearly a song/piece in itself. Its like they found a new formula for writing heavy music no one has found before. I mean how the fuck would transcribe this... I mean whats the verse, lool whats the chorus whats the middle 8 ,yet without using these standard tools each track flows in a unique way and seems to have a beginning middle and end. I find their later stuff more a collection of various technical passages, where as back then despite in a way being less accessible , there seems to be a stronger more defined band vision and everything feels more unpredictable yet more together at the same time. In short this and C.I. are master pieces of heavy music
Ben: Play faster! FASTER! Chris: I can't! Ben: Hit harder! Play blasts on the china cymbal! Chris: It's not meant for this, it's not built for this! - ruclips.net/video/1QS0IC-MN1s/видео.htmlm42s
Sounds like what Cryptopsy was telling Flo Mounier when he first joined, they kept telling him to play faster, eventually he got mad and did what I call the "hyperblast." Listen to the song Defenestration to see what I'm talking about
Greg Puciato is one of the greatest replacement frontmen of all time, he had to capture Dimitri and Mike Pattons contributions, and he nailed it. Miss Machine is a perfect mash up of both.
Nameless Dread at the time that I discovered this band for myself I was past my lsd taking days. I imagine I would have wanted to destroy things. I got that way once when I watched Slayer's War at the Warfield dvd on mushrooms. It was awesome
Into these notes there was already a "hidden" will to make a couple of songs with Mike Patton, quite evident in Sandbox Magician, what we musician friends said listening to this. History said this scheme was right when they made Irony is a Dead Scene together. This record is so fucking MrBungleful.
THis EP actually slays but all their full lengths are garbage. Idk what happened or why they tamed themselves down about 500 degrees from where they where here. This for me reminds me of Macabre's Gloom another example of a band that had an amazing sound on their Debut then fucked it all up because of money and pressure.
A full length album in this style would get samey pretty fast. Also: calculating infinity, miss machine, option paralysis and ire works are awesome records
@@TheCivildecay I like some of the puciato stuff. He's a good singer/frontman. Don't think they ever topped this and calculating infinity tho. I was referring to those newer bands that have this formula where it starts heavy then without fail they have this lame ass sung chorus. I can't name any of them cos as soon as the chorus starts I instantly lose interest and switch off

No other band can beat the unpredictability and sheer rawness of this god damn band
Mr. Bungle in their first sophomore LP
@@ReggiePostlethwaite not as raw but as random
Including DEP
this is how i‘ll remeber this band forever. with dimitri on vocals. one of the best live shows i‘ve ever seen. pure power. incomparable to what followed
Some of the most pissed and anguished sounding vocals of any heavy genre I've heard.
It's like jazz-grindcore, great sound
Isn't that what mathcore is?
If you listen to Converge, you will get that Mathcore not just Jazzgrind, this is the universe
shut the fuck up idiot
@@slowfuse NO YOU
there is actual jazzcore like John Zorn. DEP are mathcore which has jazz sections, unlike metalcore
Best era of Dillinger. Dimitri vocals match the intensity of the music and Chris on drums, just glad I was around at this time to see and meet some of em.
nope.. the best dillinger was with patton

I remember when this album first came out. Pretty god damn groundbreaking for it's time.
It must have been like a punch to the throat and kick in the balls. In a good way.
Like a next-level Deadguy
*for all time
The EP that birthed the whole genre...
Mathcore?

Dillinger is better than these bands imo
I have forgotten how incredible this album was. Fuck.

Reminds me of Prowler by Pig Destroyer at parts. I love this
Good call!
This, calculating infinity, and irony is a dead scene are my favorite Dillinger escape plan albums so far
A CLASSIC MASTERPIECE OF SHOWOFFMANSHIP!
I dare any band to try and cover this.
The first time I heard “Abe the cop”, I didn’t know music could be written like that.
Haven't listened to this since '02/'04. Forgot how great it was & still is🔥💀🔥
perfect blend of chaos and order this EP was era defining
thanks, Steven Wilson. xP
RelapseRecords , I own a copy of this ep, amazing ep with an amazing follow-up, Calculating Infinity!.
those 2 releases were timeless, some of the greatest heavy music ever made
I LOVE THE DILLINGER ESCAPE PLAN. I am now going to marry Panasonic Youth.

If only they stayed this sick…
Adam Doll was such a beast of a bassist. I got a lot out of his playing.
This was an era they'd never capture again. For some reason.
thank you!
YEahhhh!!!!!
1:06 yeahhhh
Just following up that the “Better Lovers” supergroup with Greg Puciato was announced yesterday. This sound lives on!

you are less pretentious but still a notable amount of pretentious

Heresy please please please recommend me some bands that sound like this EP! TDEP’s other stuff is good but I agree that this is on another level.
When Dmitri left the band, they went downhill
calculating infinity is fucking amazing, the fuck are you talking about?
@@adino20 Look into The End - Transfer Trachea...
I wish he'd vary his vocal performance.
meh
I dont i love it, prefer it to their later vocals
What and start singing on the 'chorus', like all those myriad of totally shit 'heavy' bands. Don't think so mate. Go listen to them
@@micklee5152 Their newer stuff (with greg puciato on vocals) has awesome sung vocals while not being a total shit band
